The Clichy-Batignolles ecodistrict is reconquering this forgotten piece of Parisian ground. Major project, it was envisioned as a response to the elevated need for housing while paving the way for the city of tomorrow. The dream opportunity to invent ingenious solutions for this mixed-use block with nursing home, social housing, private housing, religious center and retail businesses. Programs which, if they coexist intelligently, will contribute to the city’s growth with their high quality and symbolic significance. Located at the very center of the block, the ursing home proudly displays his presence, happy to allow
its inhabitants to live in the heart of the “city”. It attuned to the space and pace of the street, two vital functions. The idea that makes this possible is this “spiny” façade which offers multiple orientations and biased views allowing the intimacy of spaces despite density.
